Modes of Communication

I think that any successful activity includes all three modes of communication in a various degrees, or at least two of them. Interpretive communication may include students discussions (interpersonal), and preparing for an oral or written presentation may require earlier interaction with a group. In my activities, I try to include the three modes as much as the nature of the activity permits.
Distance learning provides fantastic tools for endless activities in which the three modes are involved in a various ways that are at the tip of everyone hands. It also makes the learning process exiting and convenient where everyone is learning in his own pace at his choice of place and time.
